This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

Put your own value in place of <MCP_CONTACT> (Contact email sent to MusicBrainz in the User-Agent (required by their policy)). The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: SETLISTFM_API_KEY (setlist.fm API key, for live-performance tools), DISCOGS_TOKEN (Discogs personal access token, for get_editions).

King Crimson MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for King Crimson MCP?
King Crimson MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package king-crimson-mcp was installed 130 times last week.
How do I connect King Crimson MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls king-crimson-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use King Crimson MCP?
The pypi package king-crimson-mcp was installed 130 times in the last week. Week over week that is +2%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is King Crimson MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
